イントロの例

①In a egalitarian society we live in, men and women should have the same educational opportunities. However, I completely disagree with the idea of accepting equal proportions of each gender
in every university subject.

②Men and women should have the same educational opportunities. For that reason, I agree with the idea of accepting equal proportions of each gender. At the same time, however, it
should take into account that some majors are popular and suited for both men and women whilst others are not.

①Having the same number of men and women on all degree courses is simply unrealistic. Student numbers on any course depend on the applications that the institution receives. If a university
decided to fill courses with equal numbers of males and females, it would need enough applicants of each gender. In reality, many courses are more popular with one gender than the other, and it
would not be practical to aim for equal proportions. For example, nursing courses tend to attract more female applicants, and it would be difficult to fill these courses if fifty per cent of the
places needed to go to males.

②To begin with, if only men go ahead in education, research, arts, history and women stay home, then no good can be done. The history suggests that men are dominant in numbers in science, arts,
engineering, creativity and business sectors. But we cannot deny the contribution of women who have devoted their whole life to the betterment of the world. Women can bring whole
different ideas and make any areas of subjects competitive to move forward. Universities should therefore accept an equal number of students. If fewer females hold the important
sectors of a country, truly equal societies would not realized.

①Another reason why I disagree with the idea is that it would be unfair to base admission to university courses on gender. Firstly, universities should continue to select the best candidates for
each course according to their qualifications. Both men and women have the same opportunities, and applicants know that they will be successful if they work hard to achieve good grades at school.
Secondly, it could be discriminatory for the universities to screen the applicants based on gender. For instance, if a female student is the best candidate for a place on a course, it would be
wrong to reject her in favour of a male student with lower grades or fewer qualifications.

⇒反対の理由2を述べている

②Although male and female students can share the same ability to obtain and convey knowledge of one specific expertise to the practical work, some majors just prefer one gender to the other. For
example, the job of civil engineering seems to fit better for men than women since it requires strong physical ability. Or though not impossible, it is hard for a woman to work as a firefighter
or policeman. On the other hand, a fewer male would apply to work as nurses or baby sisters since these jobs require some delicate touches or “a woman’s hand”. Taking these preferences into
consideration, universities will have a hard time getting the same number of students and have to find ways of opening the courses with equal numbers of both genders

結論―まとめ

①In conclusion, there should not be a educational boundary between men and women. However, the selection of university students should be based on merit, and it would be both impractical and unfair to change to a selection
procedure based on gender.

②Ideally speaking, universities should accept the same number of students in every subject they offer, for the benefits we have in our egalitarian society, however, some subjects might fit one
gender due to the physical capacity of the other. the issue of which universities need to overcome to be able to have the equal number of both students in every subject.
